 INTRODUCTION

CAUTION This system does NOT use oil or Steering Fluid. Use HA5455
Hynautic shift and throttle control fluid ONLY. DO NOT use
stop-leak type anti-freeze.

SeaStar Solutions Engine The movement of a sender’s control arm transmits mechanical energy
to an internal piston which in turn pushes hydraulic fluid through the
Control System — Why it other corresponding control senders and single control slave. This
Works movement of hydraulic fluid drives a piston in each of the senders
and slave. The movement of the individual pistons causes shaft
rotation in each unit.
The piston in each of the individual control senders and slaves has
two small valves which are opened when the piston reaches the end
of its stroke, allowing additional fluid to pass through the system. By
allowing this flow of hydraulic fluid, the controls may be synchronized
with each other by moving the control arm at one control station
from stop to stop.
The control slave is very similar to the control sender, except the
body is a rectangular block. An over-travel bungee is used in the
linkage between the slave arm and engine control arm to assure
that the slave can reach the end of its stroke in each direction. The
slave for the transmission has a built-in detent mechanism to
indicate neutral position.
On most engines the throttle exerts considerable force to return to
the idle position. Each throttle slave is equipped with a pilot check
valve which locks the throttle slave in the position it has taken in
response to the sender. The throttle slave can be driven only by the
sender, it cannot drive the sender.
Extra hydraulic fluid and a pressure head for the system is maintained
by the system’s reservoir. The reservoir is charged with 80 psi of air
over the hydraulic fluid within it. This keeps the entire system under
pressure at all times and prevents a vacuum from existing on the
back side of any piston when the system is operated.
Fluid-flow to and from the reservoir is regulated by a charging valve
located on the bottom of the reservoir. This valve is necessary to
keep the system under pressure, and to prevent excessive pressures
caused by the expansion of fluid when the fluid becomes warm.
Nylon tubing is used to pipe the system for two reasons: (1) ease of
installation, (2) nylon tubing expands and contracts in very much the
same manner as the hydraulic fluid (a most important factor). The
expansion and contraction of the tubing reduces drift of the controls
as temperature changes, thereby helping to keep all the components
of the system synchronized. The tubing is virgin nylon, which has
been heat and light stabilized and contains no plasticizers. The burst
pressure of the tubing is in excess of 1200 psi.

ii Hynautic Hydraulic Engine Controls – 04 Series

 PREPARATION FOR
INSTALLATION
CAUTION Dirt and foreign matter in the hydraulic system cause damage and
malfunction. It is extremely important to keep tubing and fittings
clean when installing and connecting components. Cut tube cleanly
and tape the open end while running tubing.
Before installation is started, the parts list should be checked to verify
that a complete system has been received. Parts lists are located on
page 19 and page 20.
It is advised that all system components be installed, (senders, shift,
throttle slaves, and reservoir) prior to running the system tubing. This
allows the tubing to be run between two definite points with less
chance of an error.
Should it become necessary for the tubing to be strung first, a system
of marking the different tubing runs should be used.

COMPONENT INSTALLATION
Components have red plastic plugs installed in their ports to keep out
foreign matter. As you remove these red plastic plugs, replace them
immediately with the proper adapter; then install the red plugs into the
adapters until you are ready to connect tubing.
Use Loctite® hydraulic sealant on all NPT fittings prior to installation.
DO NOT use teflon tape or pipe dope.

Sender Installation 1 Locate sender on panel so that the control arm’s arc will not interfere
with the ship’s wheel or panel. Be certain that access is available
to the small bleeder screw at the top of each sender head.
The design of the new Engine Control "T" handle requires a
minimum distance between control heads to provide adequate
handle clearance when two sets of controls are mounted side by
side. See Figure 1.

NOTICE This minimum distance does not apply to installations using the
optional "knob" style control handles.
2 Using the template provided in the appendix, mark and cut a hole
for the sender. Page 29 shows the proper templates for the
single head and side by side sender mounting options. Refer to
Figure 1 for minimum distance required when mounting two sets
of controls side by side.
3 Drill 7/16" holes in the panel for the mounting bolts.
4 Set sender in place and check to see if all mounting holes match up.

NOTICE
If the area under the control
panel is too confined to allow
the tubing to be connected with
moderate ease, do not secure
the sender at this time. Proceed
with the installation of the
remaining senders per Steps 1
through 5. The sender may be
secured after the tubing has
been connected to it.
5 The sender’s ports are tapped 1/4" NPTF. Suitable adapters
must be installed to accept the tubing used. It is more convenient
to install these adapters prior to mounting the senders.
(Instructions for copper tubing installations are onpage 12.)
6 Secure senders per Figure 2 for single head, or Figure 3 for side
by side mounting.
7 The sender’s handle position may be set within limits by loosening
the tightening screw (using a 1/4" allen wrench) in the lower end
of the arm and then rotating the arm as desired and resetting the
screw. After the arm is set, it will have a 115° maximum arc.

Throttle Slave Installation
NOTICE
The standard SeaStar Solutions
System, MC-04, uses the ST-06
Integrated Throttle Slave. You may
have chosen to order a non-
standard system which includes
the ST-04 Throttle Slave and
STV-10 Lock-out Valve. Depending
on which system you have, follow
the corresponding installation
instructions in this section.
CAUTION
Installation Instructions & Owner's Manual
HYNAUTIC CONTROLS
COMPONENT INSTALLATION
SeaStar Solutions throttle slaves must be mounted so that at the
mid-stroke of both the engine’s throttle arm and the slave’s control
arm, they are: 1) In the same plane; 2) parallel to each other; and 3)
right angles will be formed between the connecting linkage and each
arm. See Figure 4.
If these criteria are met, an ideal installation will result.
A spring bungee-ball joint assembly is furnished with each throttle
slave. It is installed in the slave arm-to- throttle linkage according to
Figure 4. It allows up to 3/16" slave arm over-travel in each direction.
This over-travel lets the slave cylinder travel its full stroke and still
provide full travel to the throttle arm. You must use almost all of the
slave travel, or about 75°, to operate the throttle. The slave must go
full stroke in each direction in order to synchronize the system.
The throttle slave’s arm may be set to any desired position by loosening
the tightening screw (using a 3/16" allen wrench) in the lower end of
the arm and then rotating the arm as desired and resetting the screw.
After the arm is set, it will have a 78° maximum arc.
The Throttle Slave must not be mounted to any surface exceeding
220° F (103° C). If mounting in a "hot spot" is unavoidable, the
slave must be insulated from the heat.

4 Position the throttle slave to its mid-stroke and connect the

bungee end of the 1/4-20 threaded rod to it (not provided).
5 Position the engine’s throttle arm to its mid-stroke. Determine
the length of threaded rod required and cut off the excess.
6 Connect a lock nut and a ball-joint to the engine’s throttle arm
and the free end of the threaded rod.
7 Find the proper hole in the slave arm to provide a linkage length
combination that will allow idle to full throttle on the engine,
using all but a few degrees of slave arm travel in each direction.
By adjusting the ball-joint and bungee, a fine adjustment in both
directions can be achieved. Be sure the slave arm can over-travel
through the bungee to the end of its stroke in each direction.
8 After determining the correct rod length, securely lock the ball-
joint and bungee assembly to the threaded rod with lock nuts
provided. Disconnect the linkage from the throttle slave’s arm.

ST-06 System ONLY

9 To prevent engine retard due to governor spring or vibration, a
pilot check valve is built into the ST-06 Throttle Slave.h the
bungee to the end of its stroke in each direction.

NOTICE This built-in valve will lock the slave arm in place allowing it to be
moved only by the sender.
10 Locate a tee and bleeder valve on the throttle slave and install
suitable adapters to accept tubing, per Figure 5.

NOTICE Tube connectors are installed on the tubing per instructions under
“Tubing Installation” and “Connection” on page 10.
11 Verify all fittings installed have been tightened. Repeat these
throttle slave installation procedures for the second engine.

CAUTION Dirt and foreign matter in the hydraulic system cause damage and
malfunction. It is extremely important to keep tubing and fittings
clean when installing and connecting components.
ST-04 System ONLY
9 To prevent engine retard due to governor spring or vibration, a
separate STV-10 lock-out valve is used with the ST-04 Throttle
Slave.

NOTICE If the throttle slave is in a limited space, it may be removed from the
bracket during the lock-out valve installation. The STV-10 Lock Out
Valve must be plumbed as shown in Figure 6. The lock-out valve will
lock the slaves arm and allow it to be moved by only the sender.
The check valve and slave must be mounted in close proximity to
one another. If they're not, abnormal locking action and poor
performance will result.
10 Install the lock-out valve on the throttle slave and secure it using
clean lubricant or Loctite hydraulic sealant on the threads.
Install appropriate adapters to accept tubing. Refer to Figure 6.

TUBING INSTALLATION AND
CONNECTION
Four tubing installation plans are provided in the Tubing Diagrams
Section later in this manual:
1 Twin Engine, One Station, (Plan I)
2 Twin Engine, Two Station, (Plan II)
3 Twin Engine, Three Station, (Plan III)
4 Twin Engine, Four Station, (Plan IV)
Before beginning to run the tubing, it is recommended that each tube
be assigned a number which is marked on both ends, and
correspondingly, marked at the origin and destination of that tube.
These designations should also be recorded on the chosen plan
diagram for future reference.
1 Keep tubing free of dirt and foreign matter.
2 Keep tubing away from batteries, since battery acid is corrosive
to the tubing.
3 Tie the tubing down at regular intervals using non-metallic ties
and clamps.
4 Do not allow tubing to become kinked. If it does, replace that
particular run of tubing.
5 String tubing so that it will not interfere with hatchways or
machinery removal.
6 Use only nylon tubing supplied with system from SeaStar Solutions.
Assemble tubing connectors on every tube end as described below
and illustrated in Figure 13.
The roll of tubing should be laid in a horizontal position and moved as
little as possible to avoid kinking and tangling.
1 Cut tubing using a tube cutter, leaving the cutoff end as square
as possible.
2 Slip the nut over the tubing end—(nut should slide freely).
3 Push the lock over the end of the tubing and move it back at
least one insert length from the end. The lock may slide on freely
or require a light press or screw-on action. (The lock has a left
hand thread)
4 Install the seal over the end of the tubing and against the lock.
Refer to Caution.
5 Then force the insert into the end of the tubing by pushing it
against a clean, flat surface.
6 Push the nut and the lock by hand toward the end of the tube as
far as possible.
7 Insert the tube end assembly into the proper cavity and tighten it
down. Tighten only to a solid feel on the wrench.

 HYNAUTIC CONTROLS
TUBING INSTALLATION

Copper Tubing Use these instructions in conjunction with this Manual's Section on
Tubing Installation, page 10.
1 Use 5/16" OD soft copper refrigeration type tubing.
2 Use standard 45° flares for fittings. Be careful to make good flares
and do not allow dirt or chips into the system. DO NOT use pipe dope
on fitings. Refer to cautions in this manual.
3 All tubing runs outside the engine room should be run together.
(Single-bundled)
4 Inside the engine room, lengths of tubing on each side of the same
circuit should be essentially the same length.
5 If desired, short lengths (maximum 24") of Aeroquip 2651-5 Hose with
401-5B Fittings may be used for the transition from hull-mounted to
engine-mounted tubing. This will prevent work-hardening of the copper
from flexing and vibration. Again, make sure no dirt or chips are
introduced into the hose ends or damage and malfuntion of the
system may occur.
The following figures illustrate the proper connections for copper
tubing installation between components of the Engine Contol System.

Bleeding the System
at Slave
NOTICE
Verify that linkage is disconnected,
and sender’s handles are free
to move. While bleeding, move
the slave arm and verify that the
piston has bottomed.
NOTICE
NOTICE
The bleeding procedure is much
easier for two people to perform
than one. (one keeping reservoir
filled and under pressure, while the
other one bleeds the system.)
Installation Instructions & Owner's Manual
FILLING AND BLEEDING THE
SYSTEM
1 Verify that all sender arms are free to traverse their complete arc.
2 Verify that all bleeder valves on the throttle and clutch slaves are
closed, and linkages disconnected.
See section on “System Fluid” for fluid specifications on page 17.
3 Remove fill port plug from the reservoir and fill the reservoir
within one inch of the top of the sight tube with HA5455 water
glycol fluid. Replace fill port plug.
4 Pressurize reservoir to 100 +/-10 psi through the air filler valve in
the top of the reservoir.
5 The system will now begin to fill with fluid. As the system fills the
fluid level in the reservoir will become lower. When the fluid level
is between 1 to 2 inches from the bottom of the sight glass
release the pressure and refill the tank, as in Step 4.
6 Repressurize the system and repeat this procedure of filling the
reservoir as required until no fluid drop is noted. At this point, the
system is filled and must now be bled.
7 Check entire system for leaks and correct as required.
1 Fill the reservoir as required.
2 Using the bleeder tube provided and a clean, empty container,
insert the bleeder tube in the bleeder valve at one side of a
slave. Open the bleeder valve about one turn and bleed system
until no air bubbles are evident in the flowing fluid. When the fluid
is clear, close the bleeder valve. During the bleed operation
maintain the system pressure above 60 psi, and the fluid level in
the sight gauge above the two-inch mark. Should the fluid level
drop below two inches close the bleeder valve and release the
pressure from the system. Refill the reservoir with the fluid that
has been bled off, repressurize the system and continue
bleeding. Bleed long enough that no air or foam remains in this
branch of the system. Draw at least a full reservoir of fluid
through each side of each circuit.
Since there are two positions at each slave to be bled and four slaves,
the reservoir must be filled at least 8 times during the bleed operation.
The fluid which has been bled off should be used to efill the reservoir.
3 Tighten bleeder valve after the bleed operation.
4 Bleed the second port of the slave as described in Steps 1, 2,
and 3.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 with a second person at the sender
moving the handles back and forth slowly five to ten times
6 Continue performing the preceding five steps for each remaining
slave.

 HYNAUTIC CONTROLS
FILLING AND BLEEDING

Bleeding the System at After bleeding system at each slave bleeder valve, each sender
must now be bled. A small amount of air will be trapped at the high
Senders point in each sender head.
1 Refill reservoir if required (fill tank at this time to between 1/2 and
2/3 full), and leave about 100 psi on the pressure gauge.
NOTICE Place a rag over the bleeder hole on the sender, to prevent fluid from
spilling on the console.
2 Very slowly open the bleeder plug using a 3/16" allen wrench.
See Figure 10 for location of bleeder screw.

BLEEDER SCREW

Figure 20. Bleeder Screw.

3 Allow the fluid to bleed out until the fluid is clear without air
bubbles.
4 Tighten the bleeder screw after bleeding.
5 Repeat Steps 1 to 4 above, for each sender.
6 The reservoir level should be between 1/2 and 2/3 full. If the
level is below this, the reservoir should be filled to this level.
Verify that pressurize in the reservoir is between 80 and 85 psi.

Synchronizing the Controls

NOTICE
Installation Instructions & Owner's Manual
SYSTEM FLUID
The fluid recommended for use in the system is a 50/50 mixture by
volume of distilled water and ethylene glycol. The type of ethylene
glycol used is very important for proper operation of your system
and especially the synchronization (charging) valve. Some additives,
especially silicone additives, are very thick in consistency and will clog
the elements in the synchronization valve. If this occurs your system
will be unable to maintain synchronization between sender and slave.
The ethylene glycol chosen for use should be as pure (no additives)
as possible, proportionately mixed with distilled water then filtered
to assure its purity. NEVER USE STOP LEAK TYPE ANTI-FREEZE.
Filtration is accomplished by passing the fluid through a 5 micron
filter before using in the system.
Field service pre-filtering can be accomplished by using a “Mr. Coffee”
or equivalent paper filter placed in a funnel and then pouring the
ethylene glycol solution through it.
One paper filter will filter approximately 1/2 gallon of ethylene glycol
solution.
The HA5455 fluid provided by SeaStar Solutions is proportionately
mixed and filtered to assure its purity and is ready for use.
MAKING THE SYSTEM
OPERATIONAL
The system is now operational except for synchronizing the controls.
1 Go to one control station and move each sender’s arm from stop
to stop, 3 to 5 complete cycles. Each sender should be
synchronized at this time.
This synchronization can be performed at any of the control stations.
2 If the position of the sender’s handle requires an awkward motion
by the user, adjust the handle by loosening the set screw (using a
1/4" allen wrench) and rotating the handle so that the user has
more of a direct push-pull motion. Do not position handle so that it
binds against the sender body at either end of its stroke.
3 Should one of the controls not come into synchronization, go to
that station which is out of synchronization and perform Step 1.
1 Connect throttle linkages to the throttle slave. Repeat for both engines.
2 Connect clutch linkages to the clutch slave. Repeat for both engines.
For any operational problems at this point, consult the trouble-
shooting section.
17
 OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
Throttle Senders Forward Motion — Increases Throttle.
Aft Motion — Decreases Throttle.

WARNING When working on engine and operating the engine throttle arm by
hand, disconnect throttle linkage from the control slave. If linkage
is not disconnected the pilot check valve will not allow a throttle
retardation unless a sender arm is actuated to decrease the throttle.

NOTICE Prior to starting engines, both throttles and clutches should be synchronized.
This is done by moving the sender’s control arm in a complete cycle fore
and aft, stop to stop. This needs to be done at only one station.

Clutch Senders Forward Position — Forward Direction

Center Position — Neutral
Aft Position — Reverse Direction

Maintenance Schedule The clutch and throttle sender bodies are made of 6061-T6
aluminum, which has been anodized. To clean them, a warm soapy
solution should be used. Do not attempt to use an abrasive
compound as is done when shining brass.

Every 30 Days:
1 Check hydraulic fluid level (should be between 1/2 and 2/3 full
on the sight glass).
2 Check system pressure (pressure should be between 70–90 psi),
see note below concerning reservoir pressure.

NOTICE The reservoir pressure will vary between 70-90 psi due to temperature
changes. There is no reason to become alarmed unless the pressure
drops below 70 psi, then the system should be repressurized to 80+
psi. If the pressure loss is over a relatively short period check for air
leakage. Should the pressure loss from full pressure to minimal
operation pressure be over an extended time period just repressurize
the system. This extended pressure loss is normal and may be
compared to the same type pressure loss one experiences with a
good set of automotive tires after an extended time.

Every 6 Months:
1 Check fluid level in the reservoir (level should be approximately
1/2 to 2/3 of sight glass).
2 Check system pressure, it should be between 70-90 psi. Consult
the note above about system pressure change.
3 The system is self-lubricating, but the ball-joints on control
linkages should be oiled.
4 Check mounting bolts on the control slaves (clutch and throttle)
to verify that vibration has not loosened them.
5 Check lock nuts on control linkages; verify that they are tight.
6 Check fitting connections for any leakage.
7 Where tubing runs are exposed and are bordering heavy traffic
areas, check for damage and repair as required.

SWITCH KIT SSH-01
Installation 1 Before wiring the Switch, determine the best routing for the wires
as they lead away from the switch.
2 Break out an appropriate knock-out in the Switch Cover and feed
the wires through before placing cover on Switch. When positioning
the wiring be sure that it will not interfere with the mechanical
function of the switch or slave.
2 Using the “common” and “normally closed” Switch Terminal Screws,
wire the switch into the circuit between the Starter Solenoid and
the Starter Key Switch in accordance with the engine manufacturers
recommendations.
3 Using #6-32 screws (p/n 240857), #6 flat washers (p/n 260147),
#6 lock washers (p/n 260107), and #6-32 hex nuts (p/n 270177),
mount Switch to Plate as shown in drawing. (Do not tighten screws
at this time.)
4 Using #8-32 round head screws (p/n 240201) and #8 lock washers
(p/n 260052), mount the Plate to the slave body as shown in
drawing. (Do not tighten screws at this time.)
5 Shift the transmission to “Forward” or “Reverse” so that the Cam
Follower Wheels are out of the Detents and the Arms are in the “UP”
position as shown in the drawing.
6 Make adjustments to the Switch and Plate so that the Switch
makes contact when the slave arm is in the “UP” position.
7 After making necessary adjustments, tighten all four mounting screws.
Be sure the slave arm does not cause too much overtravel on the
Switch causing possible damage to the switch arm.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Whenever in the following text, a solution calls for removal from
vessel and/or dismantling of steering Hydraulic Shift and Throttle,
such work must only be carried out by a qualified marine hydraulic
mechanic. SeaStar Solutions offers the following as a guide only
and is not responsible for any consequences resulting from
incorrect dismantling repairs.
CAUSE SOLUTION

that there is fluid and
pressure is 80 psi.
• Inspect for fluid leaks at all
connections.
• Check for air leaks in the
reservoir (use soapy water
solution)
• Bleed entire system.
• Synchronize controls on one
clutch or throttle system.
• Air in that singular system. • Check reservoir, verify that
there is fluid and throttle
system. pressure is 80 psi.
• Inspect for fluid leaks at all
connections of the system in

TROUBLESHOOTING
FAULT
6 Engine Throttle tends to
creep toward idle.
7 Full Throttle on sender gives
idle on engine.
8 After a long running period
the Throttle tends to go out
of synchronization.
9 Loss of system pressure but
not loss of fluid.
NOTE: System pressure will vary as much as +10 psi due to
temperature changes. When system pressure drops below 70 psi
a leak should be checked for.

CAUSE
• Pilot check valve
malfunctioning.
• Slave's internal piston seals
or synchronizing valves leaking
due to wear or debris.
• System tubing connected
backward.
• Slave is located at an engine
hot spot which has caused
excessive heating of the
throttle slave, which in turn
has caused the slave to
develop a vapor lock. • Spaces between the bracket
• Contamination in pilot check
valve keeping it from
functioning properly.
• If twin engines are equipped
with synchronizer, governor or
synchr onizer's tension springs
are out of adjustment.
• Air leak in reservoir.

SOLUTION
• Remove pressure from
system.
• Re-pressurize the system.
• Re-purge the system of air.
• Remove pressure from system.
• Rebuild or replace throttle slave.
• Re-pressurize the system.
• Re-purge the system of air.
• Remove pressure from the

• Re-mounting of the throttle
slave in a less hot area.
• Remove pressure from
system.
• Re-pressurize the system.
• Re-purge system of air.
• Re-adjust springs proper
tension.
NOTE: excessive tension in either
throttle extremes will cause
synchronization problems.
• While pressure is on system,
use a soapy water solution to
find an air leak on the tank.
When leak is found remove
pressure and repair,
re-pressurize system to 80 psi.
